How Are Your Leadership Skills?

If you are someone who "influences outcomes and inspires others", I highly recommend that you check out LeadStar's website and/or sign up to their mailing list, because every email that I get from this company seems to ooze motivation and/or just darn good advice.

Here's some background on LeadStar:

"Lead Star was founded in 2004 by Angie Morgan and Courtney Lynch, best-selling authors of the business book Leading from the Front (McGraw-Hill), who made a commitment to provide practical, relevant, and inspiring ways to grow and develop leaders. Lead Star teaches leadership based on Angie's and Courtney's experiences as Marine Corps officers, private sector professionals, and entrepreneurs."

"Through Lead Star, Angie and Courtney have shared their leadership message with more than 50,000 professionals worldwide. These include employees, managers, and senior executives in Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, law firms, and educational institutions. Lead Star's numerous clients include Wal-Mart, Dell, FedEx, Merrill Lynch, Charles Schwab, Cisco Systems, Baylor College of Medicine, the National Association of Legal Professionals, and the Network of Executive Women. Lead Star's empowering message resonates with men and women everywhere."

"The firm's leadership expertise has been highlighted by FOX News, CNBC, and CNN. Angie and Courtney's efforts to spark a national dialogue on the topic of women and leadership have been noted in publications ranging from BusinessWeek to the Chicago Tribune, Financial Times, Inc., and The New York Times."

...Not a bad effort for the wife of an active-duty Marine and mother to a very active toddler (read more about Angie Morgan) or the mother of twin toddlers, the primary caregiver of her 95-year-old grandmother and the wife of a firefighter (read more about Courtney Lynch). Congrats Angie & Courtney.

I hope you enjoy the site! Andrea
